Lack Permission to drop bombs

[FizzyElf]

So for some reason gaijin made it so you can't drop bombs from fighter bombers without CCRP permissions granted and it even gives you a warning for it. So if you try to bomb a base you have to guide the bomb in manually like you would with a WW2/Cold War fighter bomber. Thats really stupid considering CCRP used to be a major reason to use higher BR air craft for bombing runs, I guess you can still use higher BR vehicles for CAS via guided munitions and get similar or better effects but it sucks for normal bomb payloads.

the CCRIP allows you to target something in perticular and avoid accidental bombing. thus the permission. look at the circle and line, once these two are lined up you can drop. When in doubt just hold whatever key you've binded when you approach your target and it'll drop as soon as you're in range for bombing.

As long as CCRP is on the bombs will never release, I used to use it for about a year and never had any trouble with it, seems to be a new issue. Turning off CCRP is the only way to drop now.

Just tried ground RB too, same issue, CCRP on a light tank at high and low alt going sub 1000kph and still get the warning, had to turn off CCRP but had a fighter on my tail at that point so it didn't matter.

CCRP is for base bombing unless they changed it and you can drop the bombs normally if you don't turn it on. If you do turn it on it locks you out of dropping your bombs until you reach your selected base target. Though I haven't used CCRP since the latest update so maybe now you could click a point on the map and it will tell you where to drop.

I actually started playing with CCRP again because of the new map marker system which I found out is actually attached to CCRP and not just a marker to keep track of where marked enemies are on the ground map. Maybe I should try the old method and see if it works that way.
